    Wanting to go +2 LT.

    Whats the worst that would happen if I ran an extended coilover on a LT setup for a short while until I could flip current coilovers and get whats needed? The coilover would be my limiting factor?

    I see camburg sells a +2 kit that you can use your current coilovers on until you can upgrade.

    Id rather go total chaos route. But they obviously intend on a LT coilover being used.

    Could I run a fox 2.5 extended travel with a total chaos LT setup?

    Yeah it'll work. Just won't have as much wheel travel as with the LT set.

    Edit: I have a +2 kit with extended travel ADS and I wheel them pretty hard. So far no problems. Just can't get the height you might be wanting out if the mid travel coilovers
